January 2002 - July 2006 - The Jerry Quarry Foundation

just to please his dad, that no son should have to work that hard to be
loved.Through out our years together as husband and wife, later as
father and mother and then later to best friends, we shared one goal...to have
the best we could give to all our children. He told me that he never wanted
Jerry Lyn to put on the gloves, nor Keri that he hoped that they would use there
talents in a safe and civilized career. So I'm assuming that since you also are
his son, he would want the same for you. After all he loved you too, and wanted
the same for both his sons.Your father wouldn't have wanted you to join
the service, but if you wanted to, he'd have backed you all the way, he couldn't
get into the service, due to bad kidneys and flat feet...haha...little did the
doctors know huh?...So allow us still here to be proud of you, and love
you, and watch you prosper in your life, allow us to share in your choice of
life, to brag about our boy..Jonathan...lovegrandma kathleen|

and kathy thank you so much for your posted letter.. tina|

say I go overboard in my admiration and respect for the men and women in the
U.S. military. I never served myself---and like I've said before, the volunteer
army makes it possible for those who don't join to choose other avenues in life.
Guys like Jonathan put it all on the line for us---if it weren't for these
strong and courageous volunteers, we'd all have to serve in some capacity,
through a draft. The armed forces are a bunch of amazing and special young
people who decided not to take the easy way out. I've mentioned that I have a
two year old son. After 9-11, it's become painfully obvious that our military,
more than ever, has to protect our families from harm and that's what Jonathan
was a part of. To those who don't agree with going to war or with the way the
war has been handled---you're entitled to your opinion, but if nothing else,
please respect these young people who answered the call. |

that everyone here agree's w/ the clock man, even if Jonathon became heavyweight
champ,the time is short lived and damage would be done, if he's been serving our
country, what else do we need from this young man, THERE WILL NEVER BE ANOTHER
JERRY QUARRY, he was very unique, for me it's like jerry is still here, i watch
him all the time, reliving all the memories, THANK YOU JERRY, WE LOVE YOU,
ALWAYS|
